Got this from Ares

 

I asked for either Y, the Last Man Standing TPBs 5-10

 

or

 

Alan Moore TPBs except Watchmen and Swamp Thing

V seems to be a good read so far.

 

I also got some sweet cookies from Kenny and Ellen

I could not find Y 5-10 so I figured those would be a good read

JLA_all_the_way really nailed it and sent something perfect for me.

 

I mentioned Alan Moore amongst other things and he picked the one book I have always wanted and never owned before.

 

Just perfect...THANKS RICK!! You went way beyond what I expected.

One of the best Alan Moore series, IMHO.

Apparently my secrets santa recipient who hardly ever comes on the boards has recieved his gift and opened it, here is my P.M. from him.

So here comes this priority mail box, looking like so many other priority mail boxes filled with comics that I've purchased on these boards. I open it, see the contents, and think, "Wow, this was a GREAT purchase! When did I buy these? Must have been a while ago." And - because this happened at my office - I put the box down and go back to work.

 

But something is bothering me. I KNOW that in the past few months I have read (more than once) the entry on Amazon for exactly the Alan Moore book that was in the box that just arrived. Why was I thinking of buying that book via Amazon when I had apparently bought it on the boards? And those MAX books . . . I remember buying just about whatever MAX book when I saw them, but I don't clearly remember purchasing the books in that box . . .

 

doh!!!! That's my Christmas present in there!!!! From my secret Santa on the boards!!! What a great and perfect surprise!!!

 

Thank you, David, very much. The books are fantastic and much appreciated additions to the collection, and will be read and enjoyed. And in the "karma" category you should know that your thoughtfulness inspired me to take some additional time with the gift for my "secret Santa".

 

I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a happy and healthy 2010. And I will look for you on the boards to exchange greetings along the way.

 

Thanks again.

 

Joe

A little early Joe,but Im glad you liked it. :cloud9:

 

For those interested (and really, who wouldn't be ;) )one of the items David sent me was The Extraordinary Works of Alan Moore, which is a fantastic and really indispensable resource for anyone who is a fan of Moore's. I'm 50 pages into it and can't wait to get more free time over the Christmas holiday to hunker down and plow through the rest. This is what it looks like:

Again, a great present from David / oakman29. Hopefully my "giftee" feels the same way about his present as I do about mine.

 

I certainly do! (detailed in the other what did you get thread). Thanks again, Joe!

Wow. Paperheart outdid himself as my Secret Santa. Knowing that I enjoy Conan with Damsel in Distress covers, he sent me Savage Tales of Conan 2 and 3. Also knowing that I'm super anal when it comes to a book's condition, these copies just happen to be in great shape. I haven't taken 'em out for inspection yet, but they seem nearly perfect. The colors really pop. :cloud9:

 

Thanks, Paperheart! (worship)

A big THANK YOU to my Secret Santa--Mushie. He gave me a Spectacular Spider-Man #1 CGC 9.4. :banana: He didn't know it but I sold a copy I had a while back and was missing having a copy.

 

Happy Holidays to you and yours, Mushie--many thanks for the generous gift. :thumbsup:
